One-skein of the day: Buttony Chevron Cuff

View full sizeLee's different size buttons and variegated yarn add to the fun of the cuff.Lee Meredith, the fab craftinista Leethal, offered to let us link to several of her fun and funky designs that take a skein of yarn or less. The Buttony Chevron Cuff was inspired by a desire to do something knit and something with buttons (Leethal was inspired by Susan Beal’s new book, "Button It Up" that came out earlier this year.)

Other one-skein patterns of hers to check out any of the ones on her quick knits pattern page (they all use less than 15 yards), including the really darling lined zippered coin pouch that is free in the Knittn' Kitten ebook.

She also has a quick knits links page that gives a bunch of other inspired designers' patterns that, she says, "use less than 20 yards of yarn -- perfect for last-minute gift knitting!"

Less than 20 yards?? I love it!

If you have a one-skein pattern you'd like to share for our project of
